GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION23A-4
TRANSMISSION
The transmission is made up of the torque converter and gear train. A 3-element, 1-stage, 2-phase torque
converter with built-in torque converter clutch is used. The gear train is made up of four sets of multi-disc
clutches, two sets of multi-plate brakes, one band type brake, two set of one-way clutches and three sets of
planetary gears. The planetary gears are made up of sun gears, carriers, pinion gears and annulus gears.

COMPONENTS AND FUNCTIONS
COMPONENT FUNCTION
Underdrive clutch UD connects the input shaft to the underdrive sun gear.
Reverse clutch REV connects the input shaft to the reverse sun gear.
Overdrive clutch OD connects the input shaft to the overdrive planetary carrier.
Direct clutch DIR connects the direct sun gear and direct planetary carrier.
Low-reverse brake LR holds the low-reverse annulus gear and the overdrive planetary
carrier.
Second brake 2ND holds the reverse sun gear.
Reduction brake RED locks the direct sun gear.
One-way clutch(DIR) OWC-D restricts the rotation direction of the direct sun gear.
One-way clutch(LR) OWC-LR restricts the rotation direction of the low-reverse annulus gear.

FAIL-SAFE/BACKUP FUNCTIONM1231008300234
When a malfunction of a main sensor or actuator is
detected by the A/T-ECU, the transmission is con-
trolled by pre-set control logic to maintain safe condi-
tions for driving.The following table shows how the fail-safe/backup
function affects vehicle driveability and operation.
MALFUNCTIONING ITEM JUDGEMENT
CONDITIONCONTROL DEFAULT DURING MALFUNCTION
Input shaft speed sensor If no output pulse
from the input shaft
speed sensor is
detected for one
second or more
when the vehicle
speed is 30 km/h (19
mph) or greater.The diagnostic trouble code is recorded when the
malfunction occurs during 4 monitoring periods in
one drive cycle. When the judgment condition is
met, the transmission holds 3rd gear or 2nd gear,
depending on speed, as a fail-safe.
Output shaft speed sensor The output signal
from the output shaft
speed sensor is not
present for one
second or more
while the vehicle is
driven.The diagnostic trouble code is recorded when the
malfunction occurs during 4 monitoring periods in
one drive cycle. When the judgment condition is
met, the transmission holds 3rd gear or 2nd gear,
depending on speed, as a fail-safe.
Low-reverse solenoid valve Solenoid valve
resistance is below
2.7 ohms for 0.32
seconds.The diagnostic trouble code is recorded when the
malfunction occurs during 5 monitoring periods in
one drive cycle. When the judgment condition is
met, the A/T control relay is turned off. The
transmission will only operate in 3rd and reverse
gears until the system is repaired. Underdrive solenoid valve

TORQUE CONVERTER STALL TESTM1231005400362
This test measures the maximum engine speed when the
selector lever is in the "D" or "R" position and the torque con-
verter stalls. This tests the operation of the torque converter,
starter motor and one-way clutch operation, as well as the hold-
ing performance of the clutches and brakes in the transmission.
Do not let anyone stand in front of or behind the vehi-
cle while this test is performed.
1. Check the transmission fluid level and temperature. Check
the engine coolant temperature.
Transmission fluid level: At the "HOT" mark on the dipstick
Transmission fluid temperature: 70 80C
Engine coolant temperature: 80 100C
NOTE: Measures transmission fluid temperature with
diagnostic tool MB991958 (MUT-III sub assembly).
2. Check both rear wheels.
3. Pull the parking brake lever on, with the brake pedal fully
depressed.
4. Start the engine. 9 Transmission

The throttle should not be fully open for any more than
five seconds.
If you repeat the stall test when the transmission fluid
temperature is greater than 80
C, move the selector
lever to the "N" position and let the engine run at
approximately 1,000 r/min for at least one minute. Wait
until the transmission fluid temperature returns to 80
C
or less.
5. Move the selector lever to the "D" position. Fully depress the
accelerator pedal and read the maximum engine speed at
this time.
Standard value: Stall speed: 2,100
2,600 r/min
6. Move the selector lever to the "R" position. Fully depress the
accelerator pedal and read the maximum engine speed.
Standard value: Stall speed: 2,100

TORQUE CONVERTER STALL TEST JUDGMENT
RESULTS
1. Stall speed is too high in both "D" and "R" range
Malfunction of the torque converter (Slippage on the splines
of the torque converter and the input shaft)
Low line pressure
Low-reverse brake slippage and malfunction of the one-way
clutch
2. Stall speed is too high in "D" range only
Underdrive clutch slippage
3. Stall speed is too high in "R" range only
Reverse clutch slippage
4. Stall speed is too low in both "D" and "R" ranges
Malfunction of the torque converter (Slippage of the
one-way clutch)
Insufficient engine output
HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TESTSM1231005500392
The transmission fluid temperature should be between 70
80C during the test.
1. Check the transmission fluid level and temperature. Check
engine coolant temperature.
Transmission fluid level: "HOT" mark on the dipstick
Transmission fluid temperature: 70 80C
Engine coolant temperature: 80 100C
2. Raise the vehicle so that the wheels are free to turn.
